It’s early summer, the perfect time of year for melodic drum & bass!
As always, there’s a bit of a history lesson. Liquid funk came of age around 2004, but the birth cries could be heard as far back as the early ’90s, with the dawn of drum & bass itself.
So far the Class of ‘93 mixtape series has payed homage to those early rave genres we all know and love: hardcore breakbeat, techno, trance, jungle, acid. This time the focus shifts to ambient, a genre that enjoyed a brief spotlight in the early ’90s, both in and out of the rave scene, and easily deserves a mixtape of its own.

I was hanging out at a friend’s house, out of my mind on LSD and weed, the first time I heard Psychic TV.
Maybe it’s the time of year. Something about the icy air makes me crave cold, funky, robotic drum and bass. This winter is no exception.
One of my only professional releases ever, from way back in 2003. Vinyl only, probably just a few hundred ever made. And hey—it even has a discogs page!

What if a twitchy arcade monkey with a penchant for drum and bass hopped in a time machine dialed back to the mid-1990s after taking too much ketamine?
